Event
Environmental Lobby Day 2010
Join the states leading conservation groups and hundreds of citizen lobbyists as they engage their elected legislators with their powers of persuasion to push for the passage of the Environmental Priorities Coalitions legislative priorities:
* The Working for Clean Water bill to create jobs, rebuild local economies, & clean up polluted waterways
* Safe Baby Bottle Act to phase out BPA from baby bottles, food and beverage cans, & other consumer products
* Sustain Environmental Protections in the Budget to ensure adequate funding for the core environmental protections that make Washington State a healthy place to live
Year after year, seasoned veteran citizen lobbyists return, intermingled with many newcomers who are experiencing the sense of Olympia politics for the very first time while sensing citizen empowered.
During Environmental Lobby Day, attendees will hear from legislators who are championing the Environmental Priorities Coalition's legislation, receive a training on how to lobby from top environmental lobbyists, and have a chance to meet face-to-face with your elected officials.
